UV Light
An essential condition for the reaction of bromine with ethane is the presence of UV light. UV light provides the energy needed to break the bromine molecule and initiate the reaction with ethane, forming bromoethane.
Ethene has a very reactive double bond, and if mixed with bromine in organic solvent, it will undergo an addition reaction, where the two bromine atoms will adjoin onto the ethane molecule (because the double bond has broken, it now becomes an alkane (ethane) - more specifically it will form 1,2 - dibromoethane. C2H4 (g) + Br2 (tetrachloromethane) -------------------> CH2Br-CH2Br (aq) However, when bromine is dissolved in water instead, HOBr(aq) will be formed, subsequently the reaction becomes: C2H4 (g) + HOBr (aq) -------------------> HO-CH2-CH2Br (aq) Still, the brownish - reddish colour of the bromine water will decolourise. This is a useful way of distinguishing between alkanes and alkenes of similar molecular weights. ***RS**
Methyl bromide can be converted to ethane through a nucleophilic substitution reaction using a strong base like sodium or potassium hydroxide. The reaction involves the displacement of the bromine atom by a hydroxide ion to form ethyl alcohol, which can then be further dehydrated to form ethene. Ethene can undergo hydrogenation to yield ethane.
Yes it can undergo a substitution reaction, however conditions have to be just right. if there is a very limited amount of Bromine available OR it is at very high temperatures > 400 C. This will allow for a bromide radical to take the place of a Hydrogen atom on either side of the ethane molecule forming trans- 1,2-dibromoethane (primarily) with some of the cis form of the same molecule.Typically this is an addition reaction across the double bond of an ethene molecule resulting in the same products.
when ethane reacts with Br in presence of sunlight, it forms Ethyl Bromide(C2H5Br) and then after dehydrohalogenation of the product obtained will give Ethlene (C2H4)
Ethane can be prepared in the laboratory by reacting sodium ethoxide with ethyl iodide in anhydrous conditions. Another method involves the reaction of sodium acetate with sodium hydroxide followed by treatment with sulfuric acid to yield ethane gas.

1,2 dibromoethane and 1-bromo, 2-chloro ethane and 2-bromo ethanol
in first step prepare ethane to chloro ethane fallowed by wurtz reaction. chloro ethane can be prepared free radical reaction btw ethane and chlorine

CH4 + Cl2 = CH3Cl + HCl (in presence of sun light) CH3Cl + Na/ether = CH3-CH3 + NaCl (ethane) this reaction is called wurtz reaction.........
Rust it is an oxide, formed by the reaction with oxygen or oxygenated water ; ethane don't react with water.
Yes, however it doesn't require it either to react. ethene+bromine water→1,2-dibromoethane Ethane reacts with bromine only in the presence of UV forming bromoethane and hydrogen bromide.
Ethane can be converted to ethene (ethylene) through a process called dehydrogenation. This reaction involves removal of two hydrogen atoms from adjacent carbon atoms in ethane, resulting in the formation of a double bond between the carbon atoms.
1 you will need an ester called vinyl acetate, to make the ester you need ethanoic acid and hydroxy ethane obtain ethane from crude oil by fractional distillation treat ethane with bromine in the presence of UV light. treat with aqueous NaOH to form ethanol we have got ethanol we need ethanoic acid add acidified potassium dichromate and conc H2SO4 condition: Heat under reflux.
The chemical reaction when C2H6 gas (ethane) is combusted is: 2C2H6 + 7O2 -> 4CO2 + 6H2O. Ethane reacts with oxygen to produce carbon dioxide and water.
